Wine Spectator: A burly, meaty red, packed with dark cherry and berry flavors, but also a hint of smoke and tar. On the palate, this begins with a blast of fruit, before yielding to stiff, dr...

Wine Spectator: A rich version for the vintage, opulent even, boasting cherry, preserved beet, plum, vanilla and clove notes. Solid, with fine concentration and sappiness midpalate, ending in...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good bright, dark red. Medicinal black cherry, mocha and mint on the nose, accented by herbs and pepper. At once sweet and a bit medicinal on the palate, with roasted red be...

Burghound: An overtly floral nose features pretty red berry fruit along with hints of stems and soft earth that is also reflected by the racy, intense and pure middle weight flavors that...

Burghound: This is the most complex of the three '09 grands crus with a penetrating and ripe nose of plum, pungent earth, game, black cherry and violets. The full-bodied, dense and overt...

Burghound: Note: from 50+ year old vines and vinified with <35% whole clusters in 2011. There is generous wood with plenty of floral influence to the agreeably fresh plum, violet and cas...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Mazoyeres-Chambertin is another reticent wine. This is a decidedly intense, powerful Mazoyeres that needs time to shed its baby fat. The aromatics are expressive and ...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright, dark red. Black raspberry, minerals, flowers and a whiff of peppery spices on the slightly reduced nose. Elegant, silky and sweet, offering lovely detail, excellent ...

Burghound: There is just enough reduction present to remove the top notes from the otherwise ripe and complex dark berry fruit, earth and game-infused nose. There is good power to the co...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good medium red. Very closed nose hint at minerals and red fruits. Dense, tactile and sappy, with strong chewy minerality enlivened by integrated acidity. Fine-grained but ...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: CHAMBOLLE MUSIGNY 1er Cru Borniques 2009 (from a calcaire-rich enclave that's essentially the northern continuation of Musigny) Good full deep red. Wild yet delicate soil-driv...
